Socks
A non-blocking TCP socket layer with event-driven server and client implementations for Swift.
What is Socks?
Sockets is a networking library for Swift that provides non-blocking TCP socket functionality with event-driven server and client implementations. It solves the problem of efficient network communication by allowing multiple connections to be handled without blocking threads, making it suitable for high-performance networking applications.
Swift developers building networking applications, servers, or clients that require efficient, non-blocking TCP communication, particularly those working within the Vapor ecosystem.
Developers choose Sockets for its pure Swift implementation, non-blocking architecture that prevents thread starvation, and seamless integration with Swift's modern concurrency patterns, providing reliable low-level networking primitives.
